Rachel and Chris jump on the show to talk about a bit of client-side technology we use: Apollo. We use it because we have a GraphQL API and Apollo helps us write queries and mutations that go through that API. It slots in quite nicely with our React front-end, providing hooks we use to do the data work we need to do when we need to do it. Plus we get typed data all the way through.

Chris gets to learn that the Apollo Cache isn’t some bonus feature that just helps makes things faster, but an inevitable and deeply integrated feature into how this whole thing works.
